Welcome To The Oddity Shop, Where The Bizarre is Always on Sale.  This week, your curator Zach is telling us about Chicago's Most Haunted Alley: Couch Place.

Thanks to a listener's suggestion, we dive into a historical and eerie exploration of Chicago's haunted theater and the infamous Alley of Death, setting the mood for some spine-tingling tales.

Were talking all about the tragic and ghostly history of the Iroquois Theater, now known as the Nederlander Theater. From its grand beginnings to the catastrophic fire that changed fire safety regulations forever, we recount the chilling details and share eerie reports of ghostly apparitions, including the tragic tale of trapeze artist Nellie Reed. Join us for a compelling mix of history, horror, and the supernatural as we uncover the mysteries behind these captivating stories.
